[Verse 1]
Bb                        Cm              F                   Bb    Gm Cm F
I forgive my father for I know now no one knows what they are doing
Bb             F       Cm           F               Bb    Gm Cm F
God is just the universe patiently reworking what we ruin
  Eb                             F
Human nature bends its ear and turns its back against the fear that
Gm                      C
turns to under-ride our questions
Cm               F
Circling in the suspension


[Chorus]
       Bb           F
Are we born just to die?
     Cm                  F                 Bb                Gm
And left the whole time wondering why the world is full of suffering
     Cm                  F
What makes it all worthwhile?
       Bb             F
Are we given just to take?
        Cm            F
Has it been a big mistake?
          Bb             Dm                 Cm              F
Cause if someone made up all of this, I'd wanna ask them, "Why?"

[Verse 2]
Bb                        Cm              F           Bb    Gm Cm F
I forgive my mother for I know now every vanity's a promise
Bb             F             Cm        F              Bb    Gm Cm F
Spirit is the lifelong dirty work of learning to be honest
    Eb                                   F
The infant whines and takes the nip and to the wheel of death she slips
    Gm                               C
No wonder then we always start off crying
Cm                           F
All together too tired of trying


[Chorus]
       Bb           F
Are we born just to die?
     Cm                  F                 Bb                Gm
And left the whole time wondering why the world is full of suffering
     Cm                  F
What makes it all worthwhile?
       Bb             F
Are we given just to take?
        Cm            F
Has it been a big mistake?
          Bb             Dm                Cm              F
Cause if someone made up all of this, I'd wanna ask them, "Why? Why? Why?"


[Bridge]
Eb                                     F
Would you call us out to walk upon the waters
     Gm                             C
You fill the sea with monsters and waves
  Cm            F
Praise God who listens
  Cm            F
Praise God who saves
  Cm            F
Praise God who listens
  Cm            F
Praise God who saves

[Verse 3]
Bb                      Cm              F                 Bb    Gm Cm F
I forgive myself for I know now that desires burns down slowly
     Bb              F              Cm              F                   Bb    Gm Cm F
And time's a cosmic river that we measure to make sense of where we're going
Eb                          F                                                            C
All of our collected egos grit their teeth beg for freedom
 Gm                           C
suddenly in the form of our discomfort
          Cm                             F
Until we learn the point is loving one another

[Chorus]
          Bb           F        Cm                    F
We'll be born just to die and spend our small lives wondering
        Bb                Gm
Why we cause each other suffering
      Cm             F
What makes it all worthwhile?
        Bb            F
Are we given just to take?
        Cm           F
Has it been a big mistake?
            Bb            Dm               Cm              F
Cause if someone made up all of this, I'd wanna ask them, "Why? Why? Why?"
